Safeguarding the energy transition against political backlash to carbon markets

M. Pahle et al.

Summary: As renewable energy technology costs decrease, there is a growing demand to eliminate policy support. However, removing support policies could lead to higher financing costs, slower deployment of renewable energy capacity, and increased carbon prices. Policymakers should be aware of this risk and take necessary measures.

Finance in global transition scenarios: Mapping investments by technology into finance needs by source

Friedemann Polzin et al.

Summary: Numerous studies have provided scenarios on energy transition, but lack information on financing. An appropriate financing mix should be calculated based on investment projections according to different technology assumptions. Major commitments to wind and solar energy require asset finance from institutional investors.

The cost of debt of renewable and non-renewable energy firms

Karol Kempa et al.

Summary: The study found that as technologies and markets mature, the cost of debt of renewable energy firms gradually decreases, giving them a cost advantage over time. Additionally, renewable energy firms have lower debt costs in economies with a more developed banking sector and stricter environmental policies.

Strengthen finance in sustainability transitions research

Bjarne Steffen et al.

Summary: Understanding the role of the financial system in socio-technical transitions is crucial, and more research is needed to fully leverage the potential of established transition frameworks. Enhancing the representation of finance can help bridge sustainability transition research with sustainable finance scholarship, showing pathways to overcome obstacles posed by the financial system and utilize the potential for accelerating socio-technical transitions through redirecting financial capital.

The effect of differentiating costs of capital by country and technology on the European energy transition

Friedemann Polzin et al.

Summary: The cost of capital varies significantly across EU countries and energy technologies, affecting the technology mix, deployment, carbon emissions, and electricity system costs. By differentiating these costs in energy models, policymakers can better engineer an effective and efficient energy transition.

Higher cost of finance exacerbates a climate investment trap in developing economies

Nadia Ameli et al.

Summary: Access to low cost finance is crucial for the transition to green energy in developing economies, but the uneven distribution of capital costs in different regions poses a challenge. Policy interventions that reduce capital costs can accelerate the achievement of net-zero emissions targets in Africa.
